The inshore waters of the Lowcountry are barren during winter compared to the spring through late fall months. But redfish stick it out for the lean, bait-deprived winter. They move onto shallow oyster and sandbar flats in schools to warm up and stay inaccessible to patrolling dolphin.
When you find them in a school (sometimes in the hundreds), it's the best inshore fishing any time of year.
Here's a slot fish that Pate caught (last December) after we herded a school like sheepdogs for two hours, landing seven. Several were hogs over 30 inches.
